PEMANFAATAN FUNGI ASPERGILLUS FLAVUS, A. TEREUS DAN TRICHODERMA HARZIANUM UNTUK MENINGKATKAN PERTUMBUHAN BIBIT RHIZOPHORA APICULATA DI DESA PULAU SEMBILAN KABUPATEN LANGKAT
ABSTRACT: Mangrove is a forest
that it is affected by tides. Indonesia is one of countries that has the
largest mangrove forest in the world. Nowdays, the area has been reduced due to
the degradation of mangrove forests. This degradation can be addressed with
rehabilitation. This study used the fungi of A. flavus, A. tereus and T.
harzianum against R. apicuta seedlings which is one of the species used for the
rehabilitation of mangrove forests. The research was conducted on August 2014
untill January 2015 using a completely randomized design (CRD) with A. flavus,
A. tereus and T. harzianum treatments and with five replications. Results
showed that treatment of T. harzianum provided seedlings, the best growth of R.
apiculata where the average height of 16.06 cm, diameter of 0.676 cm, a leaf
area of 259.68 cm2, and a total of 19 g dry weight compared to the control with
average height of 10.06 cm, 0,619 cm of
diameter, leaf area of 146.64 cm2, and the total dry weight of 10.92 g.
